    Heres another resource you can try for getting lat long data...

    http://www.heavens-above.com/countries.aspx

    This is a great website for checking astronomical events and star charts so they need your location to calculate them too. This has a country picker link and town search facility to get a lat / long.

    It appears as though you can actually download the data from two sites which cover most of the globe too but that sounds like a bit of a chore to convert and host given all these web sites which can get it for you.

    I forgot the minus sign as well dang it, thought I was smart enough to follow directions. Tried to correct it (twice) but it stills shows me somewhere near Borat.

    Think I've got it correct: Droitwich Spa (52°16'N, 02°08'W)
    Looks about right

    Great work Redrobes!!

    Added myself, and got it right too.

    At least I have some use for all my navigation training even in front of my computer.

    Hi there ! Great Job, redrobes ! Added myself and Vehuiah and location seems correct. But I added both of us at exactly the same long/lat (we live together)... Maybe I should have posted them only once with a handle like "Korrigan&Vehuiah" cause I can't see her on the map...

    Cool... Placed mine.

    I screwed up too by not adding the negative on my longitude. My location is "MGCJerryAttempt2"
